Maryland men’s soccer will open its 2019 campaign against South Florida on Thursday, returning to Ludwig Field for the first time since Nov. 18, 2018.
The new-look Terps and Bulls are set to kick off at 8 p.m. ET, marking the first time the two teams have squared off since 2016, in which Maryland took a 4-1 victory. With seniors Eli Crognale, Johannes Bergmann and junior Eric Matzelevich serving as team captains for the year, head coach Sasho Cirovski hopes to get the team out on the right foot to begin the season.
